Unfortunately, splicing together pieces of film to make a larger piece is
more difficult.

Then just shorten a roll of 220 (slightly rarer)
So you say I can get a very old nikon, and a brand
new one and exchange
lenses (obviously without autofocus, et al)??? :oO VERY nice to know that
:o)
An OLD Nikon. But a VERY old Nikon, such as 'S' uses the came lenses as a
Contax rangefinder. Both extremely nice cameras! The Contax is one of
the easier cameras for a left-handed friend to use - Was Emmanuel Golberg
left handed??
But, in addition to fitting newer Nikons, the early Nikon F lenses can
also be relatively easy to adapt to OTHER cameras, since the Nikon body
was SO thick. The Mid 1960s 105mm, and the PC ("PERSPECTIVE CONTROL",
not "program Counter nor 5150, nor even Prontor) Nikor 28?mm are
especially fun and useful.
I use a Lumix FZ35, a very capable superzoom
camera. I even got first
place in a local photo concourse...
Congratulations, I think
